Pan Fried Tilapia
  1. Using paper towels, pat the fish completely dry, this will help with browning.

  2. Drizzle the tilapia with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and seasoning with smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper on both sides. Use a brush or your hands to distribute the seasonings evenly.

  3. Heat a non stick pan over medium high heat, heat oil – when it’s hot, and add the tilapia fillets. Work in batches if needed.

  4. Sear for 3-4 minutes per side until the fish is opaque and cooked through. Use a fish spatula to carefully remove from pan as it’s a flaky fish and can easily break. Cover with foil to keep warm until you’re ready to serve.
